About this listen

From the best-selling author of My Sister's Keeper comes the riveting story of a murder that shatters the picturesque calm of Amish country - and tests the heart and soul of the lawyer defending the woman at the center of the storm.

The discovery of a dead infant in an Amish barn shakes Lancaster County to its core. But the police investigation leads to a more shocking disclosure: Circumstantial evidence suggests that 18-year-old Katie Fisher, an unmarried Amish woman believed to be the newborn's mother, took the child's life. When Ellie Hathaway, a disillusioned big-city attorney, comes to Paradise, Pennsylvania, to defend Katie, two cultures collide - and for the first time in her high-profile career, Ellie faces a system of justice very different from her own. Delving deep inside the world of those who live "plain", Ellie must find a way to reach Katie on her terms. And as she unravels a tangled murder case, Ellie also looks deep within - to confront her own fears and desires when a man from her past reenters her life.

I grew up in Lancaster and after college I moved away. So, it was great to learn more of the Amish culture. As all of Jodi’s books, this too was fast paced and full of twists. I was on the edge of my seat and could not put this down. I loved it and told my sister she has to read this next! Thank you!

Riveting!!!

WARNING
Why too much Supernatural

I have read a number of books about the Amish, nonfiction and fiction.. although there were a couple of errors in this book Oh, wrong color for quilts and giving a longer history to then they have, I realized something that I had never realized before, namely the Deep sense of community. so different from mainstream Society.

enlightening

Although I figured out the ending fairly early on, I loved the story! I could not stop listening. The biggest downside to listening to it for me, was the fact that there are two narrators for the same character. That drove me crazy! Why was there a need for that? I liked one more than the other, so when the voices would switch to the one I didn't like, i had to readjust my mind to this new voice as being the same character, with a voice I felt didn't "fit." Otherwise, as I said, the book was great!

Excellent story!
